Is anyone free to report on Iran?
In: FP, Heft 213
ISSN: 0015-7228
In an interview, Lynsey Addario, American photojournalist and MacArthur 'genius' grant awardee, talked about the importance of an open press, how to fight censorship, and what Iran is really like. She becomes very skeptical as a journalist. If journalists are not allowed inside and there's no freedom of speech, clearly people, their opinions, their views, and the way they live are oppressed in some way. In Iran's case, that's to great detriment because Iran is an incredible country. The people are very educated and have a lot to say. If more journalists were allowed into Iran, there would actually be great sympathy for the people. It's so important that journalists are able to get into difficult-to-get-into places like Iran. At the end of the day, the job is to show a real picture of what these countries are like. Adapted from the source document.

Democratic Refusal in Iran
In: New perspectives quarterly: NPQ, Band 26, Heft 3, S. 17-19
ISSN: 1540-5842
The Iranian revolution—the political realization of the "Great Refusal" of Western modernization—was a direct consequence a half century later of the forced secularization of the Ottoman Caliphate by Kemal Ataturk. With the superstructure of the Muslim ummah dismantled and replaced by the Turkish nation state, insurgent religious movements, from the (Sunni) Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt to the Shiite imams of Qum and Najaf, moved into the vacuum to reclaim Islam from the shadow of Western dominance.Now, history is turning again. Iran has been seized by violent turmoil as it seeks to reconcile democracy and religious rule. Secular Turkey is governed by an Islamist‐rooted party. As they struggle to regain their balance, the global economic meltdown threatens a convergence against globalization that joins the Islamist resistance with populist backlashes elsewhere.Two legendary intelligence agents, a Hezbollah leader, an Iranian dissident philosopher and Shirin Ebadi, the Iranian human rights lawyer and Nobel Laureate, examine this historical turn.
